One major part of any design process is checking to make sure that what you’ve created actually works as it is intended – so there are a ton of websites and apps out there that need to be checked, and you could make some extra money by being the one to test them! Testers are usually paid by the test, and it’s often only around $10 per test – however, $10 for a few minutes of your time isn’t bad! You’ll generally be given a website or app to look at along with a series of instructions on what you should try to do – then you’ll either have your voice and screen actions recorded or you’ll write a short report afterward on how well the website or app worked. That’s it.

What does that mean for you? It means Nielsen will pay you $50 a year to keep their app on your favorite internet browsing device. The app itself collects statistics on your internet usage anonymously, so you never have to worry about any data being linked to you. And the best part is, the app takes up barely any space and doesn’t slow down your phone or tablet at all!

It’s an excellent opportunity to offer technical training courses that teach people how to learn a much-needed skill, or accomplish an important task. It could also prove to be an important testing ground for your educational courses. If you are able to market your course on the site, against direct competition, you may be able to direct marketing to the general public, using a website, videos, or even an affiliate marketing program.
Some of the best things in life are free and market researchers love to hand out new products in exchange for consumer feedback. If you like to try new products and have the opportunity to try them out for free, do some research and find the market research companies that offer products you desire to try. You can join campaigns and they will send the products or coupons to you to test them and provide feedback. You will generally have to fill out surveys and provide written reports based on your opinions. You will get to keep the products and they will sometimes even send you a monetary gift as an offer of thanks for doing the work.
